400W with a 2:1 on 10mm pitch will be fine. The ratio will double the torque and Like you say you won't need more than 15mtr/min, in fact, you could go 3:1 or 2.5:1 and still have plenty of speed.

Save the money and put the 400 into better ball screws.!

Thanks JAZZ. I am now waiting for a quote from DMM Technology for 400W servo motors. Their servo motors looks really good and the manual/software as well!

The ballscrews that I was planning to get arw C7 rolled ballscrews from BSTmotion. I guess the next step would be either:
1. C7 rolled, with double ballnut
2. C5 ground, with single ballnut
3. C5 ground, with double ballnut

I think that Fred doesn't offer C5 ballscrews so I am mot sure where to buy those from!

Edit: I looked into it and I will probable have a go at double ballnuts. I may need to increase the ballscrew lengths to maintain the same working area, but it will be well worth!
